[Swan Ronson]

Glad you had fun....here is a pic of the coolest memory from my undergrad days in Neyland Stadium....

Sorry you youngsters haven't got to experience that very often lately.

You win the internet.

 

[Backwards K]

My ears started ringing again just looking at that picture!

Fitting if I was a little Indian kid.

This will ruin the field turn it brown where they were stepping

BS - I've got a bermuda lawn and walking on it in the snow does not turn it brown or kill it.

I would have let the kids have fun rather than being cooped up in the dorm drinking beer

throwing bottles at cars.

Go Big Orange!!!

A part of one (probably from that game) is still sitting at my house

I know one of them ended up in the river. lol:

How the hell did you guys break the one up?

Pretty much. The grass is dormant as long as the root system doesn't sustain significant damage it's fine. They core aerate in the fall usually on a bye to encourage deeper root growth. It's fine turf nazi's just want to raise cain.

I'm not saying that anyone on here is telling a story, but the goalposts are a bit like the 250K people that were there that night. We would have needed about 70 goalposts to cover everybody that claims to have a piece.

I was part of an epic snowball fight in December '84 or January '85. There was so much snow that the University actually cancelled classes that day.

I lived in Clement Hall. The fight lasted about two hours, ranging back and forth across Cumberland Avenue. The biggest battles occurred for control of the pedestrian bridge over Cumberland. I remember two or three KPD cruisers stopping to tell us to break it up. One of the officers was *ahem* brave enough to step out of her cruiser (leaving the driver's side door open) and loudly state "The next person who throws a snowball is going to jail!"

There were about fifty of us standing on or around the bridge at the time. It took her about ten minutes to get all the snow out of her cruiser by the time we were finished.

I remember not being able to move my right arm for a day or so after that fight. It just don't get much better than that day.

i remember that, good times!

now 3HL has stolen the pic and put it on their instagram account

 

[Chilmonty]

back in the snow storm of the early 90's, I pulled UT football players around campus on the back of my bronco... we had a bunch of giant mixing bowls and pans we got from our Fraternity house kitchen and had a bunch of ropes tied to my back bumper and pulled everyone. Even had a lazyboy we put skis on the bottom of and one guy rode around in the chair pretending to read the paper.... good times. Oh, and then the next day my Bronco got stolen out of our Fraternity lot and was later found in a Chop Shop that got busted by the FBI two months later in Maryville..... Uh, good times?

Well, that story took an unexpected turn. lol

 

[TnTech_Vol]

Where's Jimmy?

He'll show up tomorrow after the snow's melted.

 

[fur burglar]

No citations or resisting arrest charges?:focus:

No, but neither was AJ Johnson or anyone else at his party the first 2 times the police asked him to tone it down :zeitung_lesen:

When I lived at Gateway Apartments near campus, we got a mattress from a thrift store and pulled it behind a truck around the parking lot. Ours didn't end so well. 3 of my friends got ran over by a Jeep on the mattress. Although we ended up spending the night in the ER, they were fine, and I'd do it again in a heartbeat.

Side Note: The Weekly Hangover printed our story so it would live in infamy for at least a few weeks.

when i went to etsu 2008 we had a big snow and we couldnt find sleds so we found a hard plastic kiddie pool at kmart that they had left outside and the manager let me have it for $5 if i would beat the foot of ice out of it and get it out of there. had to tie it to the top of my buddies pontiac sedan but we finally got it to campus. it was freakin awesome you could sit about 5 people in it and enjoy a beer on your way down the big hills up there. great night

 

[Renaissance Hillbilly]

i remember that, good times!

Yep it was. We stole some trays from Miss Mary Hall cafeteria and sledded down the big hill on 17th. Man that was cool. Ah, to be young and bulletproof again...
